The Little Orange Door

Poor organisation and lies

Bad from start to finish. Their selling technique tells you to pick any package for a great day, but spending anything under £40 means they then tell you that you won't have enough for the day and if you want to have any fun, you must buy the more expensive package. Makes me wonder why they mainly advertise a lower price which is insufficient to actually play the rest of the package you're playing for. They then hand you clothing which seemed older than I am, torn, broken and smelly.

Then they advertise lunch as a dominoes pizza, recieve wrist bands with dominoes on them, which then turns out to be from pizza hut. Not a big problem generally, but ruined one of my parties day because they don't like pizza Hut and would have brought their own food if we'd known.

Then it's the complete lack of organisation from the people running the game. They instruct you not to shoot people close, and instead tell you to shout surrender, but then don't enforce the surrender and when they shoot you at point blank range they step in and turn you out.
Also unable organise what is in the game. In this instance, they hide a briefcase on a map, and the team that retrieves it gets points, but they instead put an extra briefcase on the map which, when they realise their mistake, decided we don't get the points for retrieving it meaning we lose the game instead of winning. Put a real downer on the whole experience and I've been paintballing many times before, but this has ensured I'll find a company that is making sure they spend more time on the quality of the experience rather than the quantity of sites they own.

And to ensure you know who can't organise, the Marshall who can't organise the games correctly is James, and the manager Dominic, who when confronted with the problem, is unable to say anything either way, and is more concerned that his name is going to be mentioned in my review than the fact that his staff can't organise games.

Ruined the whole experience and ruined a good stag day otherwise.

If you want a good paintball experience, I'd consider looking around before choosing go paintball.
